Re: mazirow's perspective transformation or cognitave dissonance

Franny; I don't have a model I can recommend, but there is a book on social psychology that gives an interesting view on people's internal argumentation and how they handle cognitive dissonance by being able to make exceptions to their generalisations in the form of "special cases."

I used this in my Masters dissertation in (Facilitative) Consulting and found it most useful:

Billig,M, 1990, Arguing & Thinking; a rhetorical approach to social psychology, Cambridge (UK), Cambridge Unviversity Press

Wish you well with your dissertation,

James Graham
